MIAMI -- The Miami Dolphins released fullback Rob Konrad on Monday, a year after he made just one start and missed six games with various injuries.

The 28-year-old Konrad missed the last three games of the season with an injured back and was also inactive for the first three weeks because of a bursal infection in his thigh.

Last season, Konrad had just two carries for 18 yards and eight receptions for 69 yards and a touchdown. He had made 56 starts and missed only eight games in his first five seasons with the Dolphins.

The Dolphins now have three fullbacks -- Jamar Martin, Sammy Morris and James Lynch -- on the roster, but the team has been in talks with free agent fullback Heath Evans, a four-year veteran of the Seattle Seahawks.

As I am a Dolphin fan this news was appreciated. Thanks General. Konrad wasn't anything special anyway.....I do like the moves Saben is making thus far.

also a fins fan, and i have to say i find myself questioning some of his moves or lack there of..he talked about getting younger on defense, and then adds two aging d-linemen when we already have bowens and chester who are aging...and i think that the 0-line was the biggest problem last year and nothing has been done about that either...i'm hoping i'm just being paranoid early in the off season..also i am not too comfy about feeley being the starter...whats your take?
